Percentile scores were derived from normal control groups (n = 132) to determine whether a subject passed or failed a test.

Box 9101, 6500 HB, Nijmegen, The Netherlands k.neijenhui.s@kno.azn.nl A test battery compiled to diagnose auditory processing disorders (APDs) in an adult population was used on a population of 9–16-year-old children. Sumario Una bateria de pruebas elaborada para diagnosticar problemas de procesamiento auditivo (APD) en adultos fue utilizada en una población de 9 a 16 años. Keywords. Aetiology and clinical presentations of auditory processing disorders—a review. Hearing is a complex process that orchestrates transduction of the acoustic stimulus into neural impulses by the ears, transmission of the neural impulses by the auditory nerves to the brain, and perceptual registration and cognitive elaboration of the acoustic signal by the brain as well as conscious perception of the sound.
Hearing impairment(s) arising from pathology of the brain may have detrimental consequences on a child's life if untreated; however, diagnostic and management strategies for these “central” hearing impairments in childhood are rarely implemented. These auditory deficits have been collectively termed “auditory processing disorders”, in order to incorporate in the term the interaction between peripheral and central pathways.1 In terms of pathophysiological mechanisms, APD may be classified as occurring in the presence of2: neurological conditions; delayed central nervous system maturation; or other developmental disorders.

Schminky and Jane A. Baran Department of Communication Disorders University of Massachusetts, Amherst, Massachusetts Reprinted from Fall 1999 Deaf-Blind Perspectives, Published by Teaching Research Division of Western Oregon University for DB-LINK Hearing is a complex process that is often taken for granted. There are many individuals who have no trouble detecting the presence of sound, but who have other types of auditory difficulties (e.g., difficulties understanding conversations in noisy environments, problems following complex directions, difficulty learning new vocabulary words or foreign languages) that can affect their ability to develop normal language skills, succeed academically, or communicate effectively.
Central auditory processes are the auditory system mechanisms and processes responsible for the following behavioral phenomena.
